Why teams connect Airtable and SAP S/4HANA

Give your engineers SAP S/4HANA's data in Airtable: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Products / Materials, Billing Documents (Invoices) from SAP S/4HANA into Airtable and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever SAP S/4HANA is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Airtable sync back into SAP S/4HANA with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Sync form-submitted records from Airtable into downstream systems like a helpdesk or marketing platform.
  • Push CRM accounts and deals into an Airtable base so operations teams can manage pipelines and enrichment without CRM licenses.
  • Keep supplier records aligned between S/4HANA procurement and third-party spend platforms.
  • Push closed-won CRM opportunities into S/4HANA as sales orders without manual re-keying.

React to ERP changes

Updates in SAP S/4HANA arrive as row changes in Airtable, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where SAP S/4HANA is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

Worker and org records stay current in Airtable for provisioning, access, and reporting systems that read from the database.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Airtable back into SAP S/4HANA, keeping the ERP authoritative.

What you can sync between Airtable and SAP S/4HANA

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Airtable objects SAP S/4HANA objects
Attachments File fields exposed as expiring URLs that syncs can mirror to other systems. Production Orders Manufacturing order status surfaced in planning and operations tools.
Collaborators User fields useful for mapping record ownership to accounts in a CRM or database. Business Partners Unified customer and supplier master records, the anchor entity for CRM-to-ERP account syncs.
Bases Top-level containers; each base has its own API endpoint and schema. Sales Orders Order headers and line items synced to CRMs and fulfillment systems as they are created or amended.
Tables Map to sync tables; schema is readable through the base metadata endpoints. Purchase Orders Procurement documents shared with supplier portals and spend-management tools.
Records The row-level unit created, updated, and deleted during syncs, identified by rec-prefixed IDs. Products / Materials Material master data distributed to e-commerce, PIM, and CRM catalogs.
Fields Typed columns including linked records, lookups, and rollups; computed fields are read-only in syncs. Billing Documents (Invoices) Invoice data pushed to CRMs and payment or collections tools for finance visibility.

How the Airtable and SAP S/4HANA connectors work

Airtable

Integration surface
REST API (per-base Web API plus metadata and webhooks endpoints)
Authentication
OAuth (Airtable OAuth grant to specific bases or all resources); the authorizing user must have a `creator` role, since only creator roles can create webhooks
Change detection
Incremental updates: changes in Airtable are detected and synced efficiently in realtime (webhook-based — creator role required to create webhooks); formula fields don't emit change events and are re-synced every hour
Capabilities
read · write · CDC · webhooks
Rate limits
The Web API enforces a per-base limit of 5 requests per second.
Airtable setup guide

SAP S/4HANA

Integration surface
OData REST APIs (v2/v4), with SOAP, BAPI/RFC, and IDoc interfaces on on-premise editions
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 with communication arrangements on cloud editions; basic auth or certificate-based on-premise
Change detection
Polling on change timestamps exposed by the OData services; business events can be emitted through SAP's event infrastructure on cloud editions
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits, which vary by edition and communication arrangement
